Chapter 251: Underground Artifact
Heading up the Dark Valley, many orcs could be seen cutting down the gray trees, and some hunting.
Seeing a few people coming, the orcs immediately turned their attention to them and rushed over with their weapons. Zhou Wei directly threw out a blood moon slash to clear the field in an instant, opening a way. The Dark Elves who came with him were shocked by his formidable strength, and at the same time, they felt a little more confident that he might really be able to destroy the Black Dragon King who had killed them.
After about half an hour of walking, some tall peaks gradually appeared on either side of them.
The elder reminded, "From here on, it will be the Black Dragon Valley, let's set up a teleportation array here." β
Zhou Wei looked around and nodded when he found that there were no monsters. The elder stepped forward and began to set up the teleportation array.
After a long time, after the elder pulled out a black line, his body retreated a few steps, and he staggered, Zhou Wei hurriedly supported him, only to find that his face became very pale, and it seemed that using this black magic also required his energy.
"That's it." The elder blinked his dry eyes, and then sighed helplessly: "It's old......"
Zhou Wei looked at the female dark elf on the side and said, "Lianna, you send the elder back to rest." β
Lena nodded, and came up to support the elder. The elder didn't rush to leave, his brows condensed slightly, and he said to Zhou Wei with some seriousness: "It is very likely that the Black Dragon King has been concentrating on refining the artifact, otherwise he will definitely not give up knowing that we escaped from the mine!" β
"He must be stopped before he can refine an artifact!"
Zhou Wei nodded, if the Black Dragon King created an artifact, their skills would become completely ineffective, and their attributes would be greatly reduced, in that case, they would not even be able to fight the forced damage, and they would not have a chance of winning.
When Zhou Wei was about to leave, Lianna bit her lip and said with concern: "You be careful." β
Zhou Wei smiled and said "um", then turned around and left, and Lianna also helped the elder back to the station through the temporary teleportation array.
Zhou Wei informed Zhang Luoyi of the news that a temporary teleportation array had been set up, and asked her to lead other players to come directly to Black Dragon Valley through the temporary teleportation array, without having to reopen the wasteland.
As he continued along the river, he was suddenly so frighteningly quiet that he could not hear the sound of birds and insects, and the peaks on both sides seemed to be gradually converging. Soon, the peaks on both sides were completely connected, converging into a towering and dangerous peak. Halfway up the mountain, a castle was built, and on the hill above the castle was carved a huge monster, with its two wings wide open, as if it were about to soar, its head roaring in the sky, and its head had two sharp horns on its head. This could be the Black Dragon King. Zhou Wei guessed. As you climb up the mountain, you can see many orcs patrolling around.
Zhou Wei hid in the shadows and watched, and after they left, he used the illusion to transform into their appearance, and then swaggered towards the castle. There were four orcs guarding the gate of the castle, but they just glanced at Zhou Wei casually and let him in. Once inside the castle, he walked into the building in the middle of the building and wandered the hallways, hoping to find a place to make the artifact.
"What are you doing here, you low-level guard? Why don't you go out on patrol yet~!" Then a tall minotaur walked in front of him, with bulging muscles and looking very strong.
Zhou Wei looked up at him and asked curiously, "Who are you?" β
"I don't even know Lao Tzu, are you new here?" The minotaur looked down at Zhou Wei, glared at him, and said arrogantly: "Listen, Lao Tzu is the captain of the guard appointed by Lord Longwang himself, responsible for managing all the guards. β
Zhou Wei's mouth opened widely, and then his eyes were cold, and the long sword in his hand stabbed wildly at the captain of the guard, which was extremely fast, like a raging storm, so that the captain of the guard had no time to defend at all.
Soon he slowly fell to the ground, his eyes still widening in horror.
Zhou Wei smiled, stretched out his thumb and pointed at himself and said, "Now I am the captain." β
Transformed into a tall minotaur walking in the corridor, not to mention, this identity is really useful, those who saw him avoided the side, made way for him, and then shouted to him respectfully: "Hello captain!" β
Zhou Wei nodded and asked one person, "What about Lord Dragon King?" β
Although the man wondered why the captain asked this, he still explained to him: "My lord, don't you remember, Lord Dragon King said yesterday that he went out to find a material that can replace black crystal, and he hasn't come back yet!" β
Zhou Wei snickered in his heart, no wonder the Black Dragon King didn't trouble them, it turned out that he was in a hurry to go out to find materials, and also, he had sucked the black crystal in the ground clean, how could there be something for him to dig up.
Seeing that the man looked at him strangely, Zhou Wei didn't mean to defend himself, pretended to be angry, and changed the topic: "These damn bed bugs dare to escape, if I catch them, they must be better than dead!" β
"Yes, you must kill all these bedbugs, you dare to delay the great cause of the Dragon King, and you see that the artifact is almost completed, but something like this happened."
"The artifact is almost finished!" Zhou Wei's eyelids twitched, "This is good news, you have to hurry up and help!" β
The man flattered: "What you said is that when the time comes, you will also be able to become the commander, and the little one will congratulate you first!" β
"Haha, when Lao Tzu becomes a general, he will never treat you badly, take me to see the artifact."
The man rejoiced, "Yes, yes." Then he led the way.
The man took Zhou Wei and walked all the way to the back, and only after turning around entered a house, which was empty, only a staircase leading to the underground. As he walked down, his vision suddenly opened up.
The entire underground was almost hollowed out, forming a huge space with countless orcs walking underneath. If you look closely, there are also many goblins, dwarves, and dark elves, and on the other side there is a huge cage with many emaciated women and children of these three races.
There were five large platforms on the ground, each with the same strange black object on it. Zhou Wei walked into one of them to check.
Scepter of Divine Power (Celestial Weapon)
Grade:???
(Defective, unequippable)
Zhou Wei understood, it turned out that these were all parts of the Scepter of Divine Power, and in the end, when they were all fused together, they would become real artifacts!
This is a bit troublesome, originally he thought that he could directly devour the unfinished artifact and leave, but he didn't expect that there were so many, once he devoured one, it would inevitably cause an uproar, and it would not be so easy to swallow others.
Of course, it was the two behemoths lying on the wooden shelves that really troubled him.
